25 min4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup cooked white rice
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil (for toasting)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  2. 2

    Add Taco Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning and a splash of water (about 2-3 tablespoons) to help the seasoning blend into the beef. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until well combined and slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tortillas: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Warm them briefly in the microwave or on a dry skillet just to make them pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burritos: Evenly distribute the cooked rice across each tortilla, followed by seasoned beef, shredded cheddar cheese, nacho cheese sauce, and a generous dollop of sour cream.

  5. 5

    Wrap the Burritos: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll up tightly from one end to form a burrito, ensuring the filling is sealed inside.

  6. 6

    Toast the Burritos: Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place each burrito seam side down and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy and the cheese inside is melted.

  7. 7

    Serve: Remove from skillet and let cool for a minute. Slice in half if desired and serve warm.
